A great wine list and nice snacks too, $1 oyster happy hour 4-6 weekdays, 5-7 Saturdays
Although the food is a little pricy, this wine bar is awesome. It's large, yet cozy and has a great by the glass selection. It's one of my favorite spots for a date.
chic and cool – when i saw this place, it made it a lot easier to live in soma. i like this place a lot -- always chic.
Good after-work mix it up place – Never been here on the weekend but it's got a good scene for afterwork midweek. Nice little lounge areas to sit back and peoplewatch. Wine list is eclectic full of labels I've never heard of but I like trying new stuff.
Young professionals pack this renovated SoMa warehouse for a little food, wine and conversation. – Any given night at this upscale lounge promises an attractive crowd vying for seats at the U-shaped bar. Groups who arrive early nab seats at earth-toned chaise lounges and ottomans, where they can set their glasses of vino on low-slung tables and chat about the take-notice pop art adorning the lofty brick walls. Between sips of California zin, French cab blends or other selections from the well-edited wine list, patrons nibble on complementary small plates, including goat-cheese pizzetta, tuna cru, salumi and cheese plates.
Great fun buzz, fabulous food, killer wine list and just a hot place to be in the city. – This place is one great time. A singles "market", but I went with my boyfriend and we both loved it. Lots of buzz, fabulous wine list including several by the glass, and wonderful, delicious food. There is no hostess - seating is all first come, first served. I highly recommend the tempura spicy albacore tuna rolls, the prosciutto san daniele and arugula hand rolls with goat cheese and fig jam and the morroccan lamb meatballs. For desert, don't pass up the warm sultana spice bread pudding with brandy carmel sauce. To die for. Order 3-4 things to share with your date or friend, and you are set. Servers, all male, are on top of it and extremely knowledgable.
You don't have to go all the way to Napa for a good wine tasting... – According to our bartender, their resident wine director buys out an entire years of any particular wine that she falls in love with, so many of the labels are exclusive to District. Tasting flights come in thoughtful combinations like "Bubbles Around The World", or "Oak vs Stainless". We started off with an "Aromatic Whites" flight, mussels w/ Pernod cream, and truffled hamachi tartare w/ uni sauce. Moved on to a "Spices & Berries" flight, juicy lamb meatballs, and capered beef carpaccio. Killer.
We made the mistake of trying to eat here the night of a Giants game, and had to drive around the block 5 times before we found parking, but we're glad we stuck with it. We had unknowingly come on the last night they would be open on a Sunday, and were surprised at how comfortably empty the place was. Had our choice of seating, but decided it would be more fun to sit at the bar. They will be closed on Sundays from now on and opening up on Mondays along with every other day of the week, during which I'm told it can get really crowded, so come early.
Six glasses later I set a goal to eventually taste every wine on the menu but found out from our bartender Danny that not only does the menu change daily, they are also working on a cellar that will soon stash an additional 600 bottles. This place is fun, and portions are generous enough to share so bring friends. They print new menus everyday so don't be shy about asking to take a copy home if its towards the end of service. You're going to want to google your favorite wine as soon as you get home. If you're lucky you'll find a place that actually sells it.
Awesome place for wine and snacks – This is such a great addition to the neighborhood! I went with some friends for our "girls night out" and we settled into some wine tasting flights. As a Pinot lover, I was happy to see there was a flight just for me, the "Pinot Lovers Unite" flight. Friends got the "Bubbles Around the World," a sparkling wine flight, and the "Big Funky Reds" flight. We also ordered a few snacks, which turned into a meal's worth once we tasted the food! The three of us shared the smoked gouda and gruyere fondue (mmm I'm also a cheese lover!), prosciutto rolled up with goat cheese and tangy fig jam, a beautiful carpaccio, and endive with gorgonzola. Wow this stuff was sooo good with the wines. We topped it off with chocolate potde creme and key lime tart. I went home very happy!
Great wine tasting menu! – My partner and I visited District for the first time on Friday, Feb 23rd and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We found the service to be exceptional, the stemware spotless(i'm a bit nerotic about this!), and the tasting flights both excellent and educational. Oh yeah, the food was great too! We tried the spicy hamachi sashimi with the "aromatics" wine flight. It was truly fantastic, we especially enjoyed the nelson riesling which didn't overpower the hamachi and has a bit of sweetness that paired well with the spicyness of our dish. We also tried the "great whites" flight and although not as impressive as the aromatics, we appreciated being able to try wines that we had never heard of before. In fact, the diversity of the wine list is one of District's strong points. One other thing we noticed about the wines is how much difference the tasting order makes. I highly recommend trying your wines in more that one order and with and without food. Have fun!!
Great Wine and Food – Bob and I had dinner at District last night. It was a wonderful
experience. The bartender, Matt, was appropriately attentive, quick
to suggest pairings ... but not pushy. And, he was very cute as were
all the staff. We asked a question he didn't know the answer to.
Instead of guessing, he said "I don't know, but the sommelier
will." In just a few minutes she was there answering our question.
Chris (owner) stopped by to chat (we were the only geezers in the
place, so he was probably curious) and we loved his enthusiasm and
obvious pride of place. The food was delicious (olives, hamachi,
calamari and chocolate creme dessert). The wines were good, and we
especially enjoyed being able to choose several single glasses of
wine with the various foods. I loved the Schramsberg Sparkling Wine
with the olives. Only disappointment was the Nelson (Norman?)
Riesling. We found it to be a little blah. We love good German
Rieslings, dry but full of spice and flavor. The place was of full
of customers, all of whom appeared happy to be there, but service was
still fast and attentive. Bob noticed that in spite of the room
being full of chatty people, the acoustics were such that we weren't
distressed by too much noise. We could talk in a normal tone of
voice, something lacking in a lot of restaurants, even the most

Today's the big day, the one that you've breathlessly awaited for a solid week now. It's the day that I drew two names from my magic fishbowl for the "Peculiar Rhymes and Intimate Observations" giveaway. I was too excited to sleep last night, so I did the drawing in my PJ's and bunny slippers as I guzzled coffee. I mean, it's like a $10.99 value. How could I sleep, knowing that I was about to bestow such gifts?
Of course, there had to be a hitch. This morning, I tried to view those who had "Liked" my Facebook page, but for some reason, was unable to see the names, just the locations, so I threw those into the fishbowl, along with the monikers of the followers of my blog. Then I drew.
For dramatic effect, please click this link before reading further.
The recipient of the Smashwords e-book is none other than the fabulous Pigeon Heart!!! C'mon DOWN!
And, person who lives in Honesdale, PA, who liked my FB page…you're the big winner of the Audible audio book! Please contact me via Facebook or this blog, so that l can get it to you.
Well, I hope that wasn't too anti-climatic. It all worked out better in my head.
I've been furiously writing and editing these days. I'm gearing up to put out yet another book, and soon after that, a Kindle single. Some of you will be pleased to know that neither of these are poetry. Thanks again to everyone for being so incredibly sweetful in helping me promote my work, and congratulations again to Pigeon Heart and Honesdale!

Stocks discussed on the in-depth session of Jim Cramer's Mad Money TV Program, Wednesday March 7.
An Antidote to Internet IPOs: IAC Interactive (IACI)
The way to play internet IPOs is to get in on the deal and to sell after the initial spike. Investors who stayed longer in these IPOs saw a 24% decline in Pandora (P), a 25% fall in Yelp (YELP) since Friday and disappointment in Groupon (GRPN). An antidote to these IPOs is to find an internet stock that actually has earnings. IAC Interactive (IACI) has been around since 1986, but is still growing strong. It has risen 248% since 2009, rallied 49% year over year and is up 10% since the beginning of the year. It beat earnings by $0.15 on a 32% rise in revenues. The company runs 50 internet businesses, and has simplified its business model throughout the years by spinning off segments that aren't working and improving its core internet holdings.
Its top performer is Match.com, a pioneer website in the matchmaking space which has 1.7 million active users and generates 50% of the IACI's revenues. Match.com has a subscription-based business model that provides earnings visibility. IACI also has bought back stock aggressively. Cramer is bullish on IACI as an internet stock that is actually worth holding on to.
Cramer took a call:
- Yahoo (YHOO) may have new management, but the company is still quite challenged. Cramer needs to see a turnaround in revenues before he will recommend it.
A Case-By-Case Market
After the huge decline earlier in the week, the Dow closed up 78 points. Cramer wouldn't try to predict where the averages are going to go on any given day, or even the movement of sectors, but would look at stocks on a case-by-case basis. There was a wide divergence in the performance of stocks in individual sectors. Cypress Semiconductor (CY) said it wasn't expecting so many orders, but Qualcomm (QCOM) rose on news of a buyback, and Broadcom (BRCM) will reap the benefits from Amazon's (AMZN) Kindle.
Oil rose on Wednesday, and this brought up Ensco (ESV), but not Halliburton (HAL). Apache (APA) and Chevron (CVX) rose, but Occidental Petroleum (OXY), the most levered to rising oil prices, didn't see a bounce. Gold rebounded, but Goldcorp (GG) and Barrick Gold (ABX) barely budged. In retail, Lululemon (LULU) rallied on an upgrade, but Deckers (DECK) dropped. While drug stocks usually trade in step with each other, Allergan (AGN) and Pfizer (PFE) saw gains, but Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and Merck (MRK) fell. Rails, which are a tell for the health of the domestic economy, didn't seem to agree, with an uptick in Union Pacific (UNP) and a drop in Norfolk Southern (NSC).
In the current environment, Cramer would consider each stock in a portfolio individually and take off the table any stock that isn't working. There could be a big decline ahead on the Middle East crisis or Europe, and there is still time to raise cash.
Cramer took some calls:
- Statoil (STO) is growing its assets, which is a good move. While STO is not Cramer's favorite oil company, it is going from mediocre to much better.
- Cummins (CMI) tends to trade with China, and if China doesn't cut rates, CMI might see a dead cat bounce.
Don't Trade Apple (AAPL)
With the obsession over how to trade Apple, Cramer recommends not trading the stock at all, but owning it for the long-term. The company is expanding into the enterprise space and might make Hewlett Packard (HPQ) irrelevant. The best way to play Apple has been to buy it ahead of a product release, and to sell after the initial excitement. However, this pattern was broken with the release of the iPhone 4, when there was initial disappointment, and the stock ran after investors realized how good the product is. Cramer would simply own Apple and not fuss over every point up or down. Unless there is a huge macro event that will bring down stocks across the board, investors aren't likely to find a major decline in Apple or an obvious buying opportunity.
Cramer took some calls:
- Qualcomm can go higher on the news of its buyback, but Broadcom is a better choice, because QCOM has gone up already
- Google (GOOG) is not a derivative play off of Apple, but is more expensive than Apple, given Google's sluggish growth rate.
CEO Interview: Mike Stice, Chesapeake Midstream Partners (CHKM)
Chesapeake Midstream Partners (CHKM) offers a strong growth rate of 12% with a 5.4% dividend. While natural gas might seem like a high-risk commodity, given dramatic declines in price, CEO Mike Stice emphasized that CHKM is 100% fee based, and has no direct exposure to commodity prices. The MLP foresees a 10% annual boost of its dividend. Mike Stice spoke optimistically about the growth of the adoption of natural gas, with potential incentives from the government and the partnership between Chesapeake (CHK) and GE (GE) to make natural gas more accessible to consumers. CHKM benefits from exposure to CHK's rich assets while running a stable, fee-based business.

LEBANON, Tenn. - A man has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of a man in Lebanon and two other shots fired incidents on Thursday afternoon.
Lebanon Police charged 27-year-old Michael Starks with criminal homicide in the shooting death of 21-year-old Desmine Watts.
Police said around 4 p.m. on Thursday officials received a 911 call about a man who'd been shot on the front porch of Starks' home on South Maple Street. When police arrived at the home they were unable to find the victim. They later discovered he had run about a block down the street and was found at a nearby business.
Watts was taken to University Medical Center where he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.
Officials searched the South Maple Street home and also spent some time on Greenwood street, just a few blocks away. Shots were fired, but no one was injured. Detectives believe the two scenes are likely connected.
In addition to the two Lebanon scenes, a third scene was discovered in the westbound lanes of Interstate 40, near mile marker 225 in Mt. Juliet. Police said a driver called 911 because someone had fired shots into the driver's side door.
Three adults and two children were inside the vehicle, but no one was hurt.
Police said Starks was also the shooter in that incident. He was also charged with five counts of aggravated assault and five counts of reckless endangerment in connection with that shooting.
Starks was held in the Wilson County jail on $1 million bond. A motive for the shootings was not immediately released.

innovation – give it ten years (girly geeks london)
So, I went to the
I went there knowing absolutely no one, and ended up meeting a few people (hooray to those girls who were brave enough to introduce themselves to people they've never met… this happened about three times throughout the night, I did it a few times but not as bravely as some!)
One thing I'm taking away from the evening is that I need to find a way to talk about what I do that sounds as exciting as I think it is. As you do when you don't know anyone, you find yourself explaining what you do with your time at work. You'd know by now that I'm pretty enthusiastic about my work – but I know that when I talk about it, it doesn't have that zing. That's something to work on.
Someone who does much better at it is
Abigail says – if you're going to *really* innovate – really do something out of the square – then be prepared for a ten year wait to see it go to market- otherwise be prepared to engage in taking it to market (getting out of the research lab and going out for lunch with product managers, engaging with the economics and the politics of the organisation outside of the research lab). She was talking about projects they were working on ten years ago that we're looking at today and thinking 'how sexy'. Seen that two handed desktop interaction? That kind of thing. They were working on it ten years ago and now the market is almost ready to find a place for it.
If you want to take innovation to market quickly, then focus on tweaks. Find ways to make existing technology work better. And this is no small task. Abigail gave the example of the mobile phone and the way that SMS completely revolutionised what that device meant to people and how they used it. That's a reasonably small innovation that came to market reasonably quickly (depending on what market you're in) and made huge changes.
At Microsoft they've been looking at the home technology market. Their thinking is that up until now, home technology has been divided into two areas: time saving and time wasting. This is a pretty simple breakdown, they say, and there must be some more interesting opportunities for technology in this environment – like for using it to allow people to express themselves, to emote, and for supporting families.
Really interesting stuff – enough to turn some of us green with jealousy, I'm sure. Sometimes I really like the idea of working in a research lab. But then, they too have frustrations – such as the ten year wait, and the products that are designed but never get to market, and getting IP Patents for all your ideas can't be that much fun either.
It was definitely worth the effort to make it to Geek Girls and I'd recommend it to other London gals. Get along and check it out!

Dog Day + Seth Smith = Deformer's trippy dripping head
Dog Day: Deformer [Aug/2011] — IT ALL STARTS with an honest (and clever) moniker for the third full-length record by this wonderfully, melodically loud and righteously Halifamous band. Previously a fuller, cleaner four-piece, partners Seth Smith and Nancy Urich decamped from Halifax after something of a slow-mo implosion (making the band only marginally Haligonian, actually) and decided to reinvent themselves as a duo while learning to live off the land nearby. What existed before, in life and in noisemaking, was becoming deformed, rather than forming.
"I always try to push our band to do something a little different, not having a cookie cutter sound," explains Smith. "Doing the two-piece thing was basically the result of our band almost breaking up, having the other two guys kind of leaving, ending up with just the two of us, and doing something else using the same name. I already had a bunch of Dog Day songs, so we just decided to keep the name and go with it."
DOG DAY - Make The Right Decision from Mitch Fillion (southernsouls.ca) on Vimeo.
A penchant for symmetry in the band's visual aesthetic also stuck. Urich and Smith wanted something classic for cover art, a high-contrast piece with little colour that could easily be screen printable. "I really wanted one face," says Smith, "but I didn't want it to be our faces or someone that really existed, so we made someone up."
Using a still image of Liv Ullmann's actress character in Ingmar Bergman's 1966 film Persona as source material, Smith followed the same creative impulses that he's thrived on as an inventive, DIY graphic artist for more than a decade. "The actress has a real pretty face, and I've always been interested in making pretty things look ugly," he says. "When I first started doing any kind of art it was with photocopies at Kinkos. I'd just take photos of Marilyn Monroe and photocopy them and then take that copy and scan it and copy it again, so there'd be these generations of decay and distress. I'm all about trying to see what the true image is in there after you take away all the make up and break it down."
Smith also attributes the overall packaging style to an aesthetic that he was gorging on while finishing the album—film noir, silhouettes, creepy animals, and black-and-white psychedelia. These influences hail from another project that he was working on at the time, a short film (more on that in a moment). But the act of deforming from a city lifestyle certainly enhanced this broader affinity for spookiness.
"Thematically, the record is largely about me and my wife Nancy moving to the country and kind of living an introvert life out there." This idea shows up obliquely in Deformer lyrics (from the song "Part Girl," for example: The danger of trying new things / is a small price for fresh feelings), and more directly via the haunted landscapes and creatures found in the packaging art. "We spend a lot of time with our chickens in our backyard, so they made the cut," says Smith of a hen's head that pops from one particular image.
The couple's dog Woofy also makes a couple of appearances, sporting a deformed snout in one (above; Urich's face gets a similar deforming treatment in another image as well). The other Woofy influence is only in spirit, via another film still that Smith doctored in homage to their dog's crazy dream behaviour.
"I have this film book that I got a lot of these pictures from, and that's from Rin Tin Tin," says Smith. "It's one of the characters and the dog is just howling beside his dead master or something, and I thought it'd be cool if it was this dog ghost rising from the body. But also, the first song [on Deformer, called "Daydream"] has an intro recording of a dog dream that Nancy had done. Our dog Woofy always has these really loud, physical dreams, almost like he's talking, and he runs sometimes, so she was recording it and capturing it. We were almost going to call the record dog dream, and I wanted to do something visually that would complement that."
The movie Smith was filming—currently titled Lowlife—"definitely rubbed off on this record" thematically. "It had a lot of similar elements," he says. "There are a lot of weird, slimy creatures, a lot of dripping. And in the film there's a human character who deforms over time, he gets sicker and sicker, and I had to make these prosthetic deformations as makeup."
Tight-lipped about specifics, Smith divulges that the movie was shot on a very small budget around Halifax and on his and Urich's land in the country. When I ask about his attraction to black-and-white psychedelia, Smith says "that's what really interests me right now. The movie is actually a drug movie. With your traditional drug movie, when a character is under the influence or whatever, you just see so many crazy different colours and it's oversaturated, but it's kind of neat to explore that in a black-and-white environment. It can even be trippier in some ways."
As you'd suspect, music will also play a big part in setting the cinematic atmosphere. Smith says he's using a lot of ambient stuff, but with a few left-field choices, such as a monastery monk's choir and another song from black metal pioneer Varg Vikirnes (aka Burzum). Most of the soundtrack is being developed in collaboration with Halifax's Divorce Records, drawing heavily from their roster of noise bands for an unconventional take on a mystery movie score. "It will be weird, if nothing else," says Smith.
The goal is to wrap up audio and editing this winter and then submit Lowlife to some fall 2012 festivals, maybe do a small gallery tour with a few of the cast members or something. "It's just an indie film, so we're happy if we can get 10 or 15 people to watch it in one place."
Rome - DOG DAY from Seth Smith on Vimeo.
Smith has been developing motion pictures for close to a decade, including the Dog Day jam shown above. He was able to make this newer, much more elaborate film shoot happen because his friend (and Trailer Park Boys director) Mike Clattenburg lent him a professional camera and told him to do it. He borrowed some other gear and pulled together a skeletal crew of people, keeping everything easy and small.
This is an approach that has served Smith well. He got started as a visual artist by making posters for his band in the late '90s, "before the Internet was really huge and you really had to poster to get people to know about a show." He'd play around with photocopying, cutting and gluing images, spending small amounts of money over long stretches of time in the company of copy shop clerks.
Sometime after Y2K he ended up living with a guy named Paul Hammond, who was doing similar work. They began collaborating on screen-printed posters, which nobody was really doing in Halifax. "We just thought we'd give it a try, and so we did it out of our house for a couple of years," says Smith. "Our bathtub got really dirty. It was fun. We started by doing show posters for local bands and the scene was very supportive, so we got a bunch of jobs and it became a second part-time job for us."
Slowly it turned into a full-time job, and the duo formed a graphic arts collective called Yorodeo. For a while they produced advertising designs, but then quickly realized that they didn't want to just be problem solvers for clients. "So we got a studio, and we shifted our focus more towards fine art and making prints and having gallery shows."
Yorodeo's most recent project, a mind-tickling and literally absorbing collection of two dozen pieces called Three-Dee Realms, has been exhibited in seven provinces so far. It stemmed from Hammond having this great 1970s how-to manual for making 3D images with math and angles, and Smith having a couple of old Basil Wolverton comics that he was really into. They realized that the two-colour method shown in both would lend itself really nicely to screen printing.
"Most of the 3D screen printing I'd seen hadn't really been done that well in my opinion," says Smith. "It would just be the same image printed over in a different colour and shifted to the side, or it seemed like some people didn't even realize how it worked, they just put it wherever. We had a pretty good idea of how it worked because we'd both played with it as kids, using colouring pencils and wearing the glasses."
They also both liked the idea of doing a print series that was based on science fiction and strange fantasy landscapes. And although a few of the resulting pieces feature alien characters, they were especially interested in creating worlds that a blue-and-red glasses-wearing audience could get lost in, perhaps even imagining themselves going to.
They did a small run, which sold out and then was reprinted and expanded upon. "It was before Avatar, before 3D got really huge again. But people were pretty excited about it because, like, a lot of the 3D stuff that was happening, all this Pixar stuff or whatever, it was very computery. And this was a hands-on, old technology version of it. People were enthusiastic about it so we decided to make it an ongoing project and keeping it going."
Having toured Three-Dee Realms fairly extensively and given artist talks, Smith says they've been really happy with the levels of crowd interaction they've witnessed. To encourage more, their plan is try and add some more sculptural elements to the show, as well as 3D movie projections.
Experimenting with that in mind, Smith's Lowlife will include a couple of 3D sequences. Naturally, his approach sounds deceptively simple, labour intensive, and ultimately pretty stunning. "It's two images, the left eye image and the right eye image, and they just flicker intermittently," explains Smith. "You don't need to wear glasses, but it has a very shifty, strobic effect, which creates a three dimensional illusion. That was a neat way of adding some dreaminess."

"I love my swing," says Heidi King, a mother of three who lives in Tallahassee, Florida. "It's where I rock my youngest daughter to sleep." Still, King was hoping for something more: namely, an open-air extension of her living room, a place where she could sip coffee, read magazines, and serve up her husband's famous mojitos when the mood struck. With a few well-chosen, inexpensive accessories most purchased online and delivered right to King's door we turned this deserted corner into a neighborhood hangout: no painting or hammering required. "I love that the new porch lures our friends over," says King. "They end up staying all evening, which is exactly how I pictured it."

best hair – i did it and i feel so dirty, but i look fantastic!! after 10 years with my hairdresser (whom i loved and swore was the best) i cheated on her with another stylist. do i feel guilty? yes. was it worth it? many times, yes.
i don't care who does your hair now. dump them and run straight into the chair of the sublimely talented TARA.
send your old stylist a bunch of flowers with thanks for the good times you shared and move on. tara's nimble and talented scissors will make your old stylist's work look like it was done with meat cleavers.
Fast, inexpensive hair salon – Zip Zap is great, love the atmosphere and the decor. Everyone in there is uber friendly. Mike's cut my hair twice now - both times I was in and out in under 30 minutes and my hair looked great! It's very reasonably priced compared to the shee shee salons. And you don't have to wait 6 months to get an appointment!
Tresses are treated to daring 'dos and experienced stylists at this funky, boldly decorated neighborhood salon. – In Short
With highly textured walls done up in fiery shades of metallic paint, gold mirrors and, occasionally, local artwork, this Lower Haight destination for hair therapy resembles a practicing artist's street-level, live-work loft. The stylists, several of whom have been at the salon for many years, are known for administering moderately priced, creative cuts, highlights and color that manage to be hip without bowing to the latest hair fads. Walk-ins are welcome.
MUST SEE MONICA FOR YOUR COLOR – I have been going to Monica for over a year for my color... I have gone to a million colorist and finally found Monica-I felt very grateful!!! If your a blonde and your looking for a fantastic colorist for Blonde hair-PLEASE see Monica-she's the best. She knows her stuff and you will walk out a happy camper as well looking great!!!!
Jeni is the best – I'm just come to this country a year ago and for 1 year I'm never got hair cut because so scared to try new place or person who gonna cut my hair. My husband told me to try Zip Zap and I'm try looking for review about this place, finally i'm make an appointment and they give me Jeni...I came and she did a great job for my hair, and she can understand my face and the result so great....thanks Jeni...now I got new place and new girl for take care my hair....
Bad Stylist - don't know what they are doing – Went their for the first time last week to have my haircut. Although the stylist was nice and seem like she knew what I wanted, I ended up with a terrible haircut. When I made the appointment, I explained I needed someone who really knew how to cut fine hair. Half-way through styling my hair the stylist could tell I was not happy, it look like some kind of white trash cut, so what does she do, chops away at it more.
Now everyday, I have to use a curling iron on my short hair to cover up the bad job. It will be at least six months before I can do anything with it. I just about want to cry. I will never go there again. Why are their so many bad stylists in SF?
I can't say I was impressed with any of the other cuts that were being done by the other stylists.
Best Color – I've been going to Paul for years - I tried a zillion places and he does the best no nonsense reliable great color.
JAMES IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!! – I have tried others BUT james, YOU made me look GREAT!
so nice, and had great ideas!
Thanks James!!!
James' Rocks! – I had been having trouble finding someone to give me great highlights, and becoming frustrated always winding up with brassy streaks. A friend recomended James at ZipZap. I was a little reluctant, since I have had so many horrible experiences. I made the appointment and I have never made a better decision. My hair color is gorgeous, It's been 3 weeks and still looks great. On top of being a wonderful colorist, he has a great personality AND you get a complimentary haircut with your first set of highlights!
I used to go to DiPietro Todd – But I get the same quality haircut for half theprice from Tara at Zip Zap. It isn't as self important as other salons, but I really like thi s plce.

Having secured the services of Senegal international Demba Ba, Rafael Benitez is confident the Senegal international and Fernando Torres can bring the best out of each other in the months ahead.
Our latest acquisition is fit and eligible for selection as the Blues begin the defence of our FA Cup crown later today against Southampton at St Mary's, and having seen Daniel Sturridge depart for Liverpool earlier this week, the Chelsea manager is delighted to have Ba on board.
'The main thing for me now is to manage the two strikers I have,' said the Blues boss. 'I'm really pleased with the situation because before there was only one option, so it's important for me to make sure they are both in good condition and are able to compete.
'He's a player with experience, he had a clause and we needed a player who could compete with Fernando. He was playing every game for Newcastle, we have a player who can play for us and we don't need to wait three months for the adaptation.
'We were talking about the striking positions; we know Torres has been playing too many games, but we couldn't manage him in the same way that we can manage the centre-backs because we have three of them, so each situation is different.
'It's good for the team to have players in different positions who can compete; it keeps them on their toes, that's the normal way at all clubs.'
Having started strongly, the first half of the season will be remembered mostly for a premature Champions League exit and the management transition which saw the Spaniard take the reins.
Benitez will undoubtedly be looking for a more consistent spell between now and May, particularly with four trophies still to play for, and after the disappointment of Wednesday's home defeat to Queens Park Rangers, today's game offers the perfect opportunity for his team to lay down a marker.
'The message is very clear, we will try to win every game and we will approach every match as if it's the most important,' he said. 'It was not easy before and it won't be easy now, but the most important thing is to take one game at a time.
'Now we have the FA Cup, that will be our most important game, and then it's the Capital One Cup and the Premier League.
'I'm not the kind of manager to say we don't care about certain competitions, that's not my way. We will try to win them all and see where we are.
'We know that the top four is really important for the club. We will try to win a cup but at the same time concentrate on league games, the priority is always to win trophies.'
A clip of Rafael Benitez's pre-match interview with Chelsea TV can seen above with the full interview available now via the channel's online access.

National polling suggests that the American public is deeply divided about whom it wants to be the next president of the United States.
In a Washington Post-ABC News survey released last week President Obama led Mitt Romney by 49 percent to 48 percent among likely voters. A New York Times-CBS News poll released around the same time put Obama at 49 percent to Romney's 46 percent among those most likely to vote.

The long awaited Mini Mods are finally here. These boards are designed to be performance surf SUPs but are also a good choice for smaller paddlers looking for a light-weight recreational paddleboard with ample stability. What makes the Mini Mod unique is that it is thinner than most boards on the market which allows the surfer to easily set the rail in bottom and top turns. The board sits lower in the water which allows for less "bobbing" from rail to rail. It has a wide tail which also adds to the stability. The Mini Mod was designed to excel in playful sized surf much like many of the popular alternative surfboards on the market today.
Height: 8'8"
Nose: 19 3/8"
Width: 28 3/4"
Tail: 19 15/16"
Thickness: 3 7/16"
Fins Included: Quad + Center

Problem with the quality of SD on new Hopper reciever
Posted 26 January 2013 - 03:09 PM
The SD channels should be the same aspect ratios on both arcs ... letterboxed on one should be letterboxed on the other. I am not aware of any channels that are cropped/letterboxed differently based on the arc.

I was just commenting the other day while trying to watch an ACC basketball game how one team was one color of blob and the other team was another color of blob... and it was hard to tell much of anything.
So... some channels are pretty bad in SD.

There is a limit of how far the dish can be away from the receiver ... which would also include the length of cable inside your home (dish to hub+hub to Hopper).
I will talk to the installer since the dish is not yet in the ground but on a stand about moving it past the problematic tree group. It would be about a 60-70' move. Do you know if Dish allows 'longer' placements like this besides the close to the home one. I'm sure it's more expensive in the wire but I'm sure they got plenty of it. Thanks for the help.

Jesse Tyler Ferguson stops at Tie Bar to promote same-sex marriage
By Susan Frick Carlman firstname.lastname@example.com January 2, 2013 4:32PM
Lt. Governor Sheila Simon urges citizens to contact their legislators in support of same-sex marriage Wednesday with help from "Modern Family" actor Jesse Tyler Ferguson, center, and his fiancee Justin at The Tie Bar in Naperville. Mary Beth Nolan~For Sun-Times Media

Updated: February 5, 2013 6:13AM
It likely surprises no one that Mitchell Pritchett would believe in same-sex marriage.
The fictional character from the ABC hit comedy "Modern Family" is half of a TV couple that also includes Cameron Tucker, portrayed by Eric Stonestreet. But Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who plays the role of Mitchell, has very real-life reasons for lobbying to have marriage between same-sex couples legally recognized from coast to coast.
Ferguson visited Naperville on Wednesday afternoon with his fiance, Justin Mikita, and a group of fellow marriage-equality activists that also included Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon. Their appearance was one of several stops the entourage made to spotlight "Bow Tie Lobby Day," set for Thursday in Springfield. The initiative aims to convince Illinois lawmakers to sport bow ties displaying their support for same-sex marriage in the state.
Simon — whose dad, the late U.S. Sen. Paul Simon, was rarely seen without a bow tie on — picked up a new bow tie while visiting Naperville's The Tie Bar, which partnered with Ferguson and Mikita's nonprofit, Tie The Knot, and hosted the Wednesday event. Tie The Knot produces limited-edition bow ties and donates profits from their sale to organizations promoting gay marriage rights. Its mission is "to advocate for the civil rights of gay and lesbian Americans throughout the United States and to look damn good while doing it," press materials state.
The foundation's establishment, however, was a simpler matter than that.
"We wanted to design some bow ties, because we love them," Ferguson said.
While his famous face and its connection to a hugely popular TV show don't hurt the cause, he took no credit for the idea of Tie The Knot. That was all Mikita, whom Ferguson described as "my better half and the smarter of the two of us."
A marriage-equality law would move Illinois in "a very positive direction," Simon said, by conveying a clear message that the state is inclusive and embraces "two-mom households and two-dad households."
The measure could come to a vote in Springfield in the next few days.
If approved, the state's Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act would extend to gay and lesbian spouses the same legal rights accorded to heterosexual married couples.
Nikki and Jamie Pagano are hopeful the measure will pass. The Naperville couple have considered themselves married since they were joined in a ceremony at the First Congregational United Church of Christ in Naperville in July 2007. They reaffirmed their commitment after Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn signed legislation granting full legal rights to those in civil unions, joining some three dozen other couples in Chicago's Millennium Park for a mass ceremony in June 2011. The state's blessing would make their union "a little more equal and a little more correct," said Nikki Pagano, a science teacher at Washington Junior High School in Naperville.
"I think it's the only time you can get married three times to the same person, without getting divorced," she said.
Legalized marriage among those of the same sex is particularly important, she said, in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's current consideration of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. The justices are expected to begin hearing arguments in March focused on the 1996 legislation, which defines marriage as the legal union of one man and one woman. If the federal law is struck down, Pagano said, a state-sanctioned marriage between the two would be recognized in every state, while their civil union still would not.
Greg Shugar, who owns The Tie Bar with his wife, Gina, said they agreed to work with Ferguson, an established Tie Bar customer, because they believe in marriage equality.
"Because my wife and I agree with it, and actually feel pretty strongly about it on a personal level, we thought it would be a good partnership," he said.
Voters in Maine, Maryland and Washington approved the right of same-sex couples to marry when they went to the polls Nov. 6. If the issue clears the General Assembly, Illinois would be the 10th state to pave the way for homosexual couples to tie the knot. Shugar thinks the numbers are far too small.
"To me, it's an obvious human rights issue," he said. "It baffles me that gay and lesbian couples continue to be treated like second-class citizens when it comes to the institution of marriage."

BreadThat's the question on many people's minds considering everyone from The New York Times reporters to Miley Cyrus are pondering the merits of a GF diet. But the answer, it turns out, isn't so simple.
For some people, about 1% of the population with celiac disease, eating foods with gluten causes severe damage to the lining of their intestines, which can lead to a host of uncomfortable symptoms as well as an increased risk of cancer. For them, avoiding gluten is crucial and no amount is safe. Families living with someone who has celiac disease have to take special precautions to avoid cross-contamination, say by devoting a toaster to gluten free foods and by taking care not to use the same serving utensils for dishing out foods that contain gluten along with foods that don't.
Far more people suffer from gluten sensitivity, a condition with complaints that range from headaches to fatigue to diarrhea. Doctors aren't sure why, but these people also feel better after removing gluten from their diet. Since there is no evidence of any actual damage, like the intestinal damage seen in celiac disease, these people don't need to be as hyper-aware of things like cross contamination.
Related: The 11 Worst Foods For Your Health
Then there are those who believe that giving up gluten is an enlightened way of eating. The boon of gluten-free products on the shelves and the celebrity following inspire this thinking, but in my view-and one I share with many experts-giving up gluten is akin to giving up fat in the 90s. Who else remembers going through a sleeve of Snackwell cookies simply because they were fat free? Years later, we learned that we were in sugar shock and calorie overload! Apply that logic to GF diets. If you're trading in whole wheat breads for GF versions, you may be falling into a calorie trap! I found some shocking examples, which I shared with Dr. Oz.
Related: 8 Ways to Cheat-Proof Your Diet
If you're looking to lose weight, a better way to go is to look at the ratios on your plate. Grains, whether they contain gluten or not, should generally occupy about a quarter of the space-about a half-cup worth of things like quinoa and brown rice (both gluten free) or whole wheat pasta and couscous. Fill half your plate with veggies and the remaining quarter with some lean and filling protein, like skinless chicken breast, flank steak, eggs, or tofu. And scale back on chips and baked goods, whether or not they contain gluten. (I know, a no-brainer, but still…)
What are your thoughts on going gluten-free? Let me know in the comments!

Book of John Master Drawing
Book of John Student Sheet
Book of John Script
Spiral Bound Book
New Testament only $51.00
The Picture-Smart Bible is a discipleship and teaching manual for children (gr 4+), teens, and adults as well as an evangelistic tool.
Manual of New Testament
Master drawings - a visual guide of the student worksheet for the teacher which illustrates the key concepts of each book of the Bible. This finished picture will guide your teaching and help you draw a student sheet along with your children. Some are full page and some are half page.
A Script - a synopsis of each Bible book to read to your students with instructions regarding when and what to trace or draw on the dotted line drawing. Each script begins with an orientation paragraph to help you and your children understand how each book relates to the previous book. Therefore,these paragraphs help children see the Bible as a whole.
Student sheets - copy these dotted line drawings for your students to complete while the teacher reads through the script. Student sheets are perforated for easy removal and copying. Located in the back of "The Picture-Smart Bible," student sheets are lighter dot-to-dot type illustrations that match the Master Drawings. In most cases, your "drawing path" will begin in the upper left corner, progressing back and forth across the page. Children should be encouraged to draw only when you draw.
Directions for Drawing. Within the commentary, you are told when and what to write, draw, or trace on the Student Sheets.
Wide Margin - Every page has space for you to write hints and things you learn in your study and devotions that you want to include in your teaching. Although its not necessary to study anything but this Bible, your presentation can be greatly enriched through personal study and the use of other resources.
Applications for Life . At the end of every script are suggested discussion questions designed to help students apply concepts from each book to their lives (II Tim. 3:16-17). You may, of course, choose to make practical applications throughout your lesson rather than waiting until the end.
Thumbnail Drawings.Located in the left margin of the script, these drawings show how the illustration will look as each element is added. These small, progressive illustrations, combined with written directions in the script, provide complete step-by-step drawing instructions.

U.S. manufacturing unexpectedly contracted in November, falling to its lowest in over three years in a sign the sector may be struggling to gain traction, according to an industry report released on Monday.
The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) said its index of national factory activity fell to 49.5 in November from 51.7 the month before. The reading was shy of expectations of 51.3, according to a Reuters poll of economists.
A reading below 50 indicates contraction in the manufacturing sector, while a number above 50 means expansion.
The index hit its lowest since July 2009 and contracted after two straight months of growth that followed a soft period over the summer months.
The employment index fell to 48.4, and was below 50 for the first time since September 2009.
New orders fell to 50.3 from 54.2 and were at their lowest since August. Prices paid were down to 52.5 from 55.0, compared to an expected 53.0.
A separate report showed that U.S. construction spending rose in October by the most in five months, with stronger spending on homes outpacing tepid gains in business and government projects.
Construction spending climbed 1.4 percent to an annual rate of $872.1 billion, the highest level in over three years, the Commerce Department said on Monday. Analysts polled by Reuters had expected a 0.5 percent gain.
The department also said superstorm Sandy, which hit the East Coast at the end of October, likely had a minimal effect on the data.
Home building is expected to add to economic growth this year for the first time since 2005, although the housing sector remains a shadow of what it was before the 2007-09 recession.
Spending on private residential projects rose 3 percent in October, a reflection of this year's improving housing market.
Muting the gain in overall construction, however, private spending on nonresidential projects edged up just 0.3 percent.
Businesses have shown signs they are holding back on investments because federal austerity plans could trigger a recession next year, and the construction data could be another sign of flagging confidence.
Public sector construction spending rose 0.8 percent. State and local spending dropped 0.1 percent, while outlays on federal government projects increased 10.7 percent.
